Hello, first off you didn't tick anything inside your POB configuration tab to properly reflect your DPS so there's that. Then your gearing is missing a lot of what's contributing to my build's DPS, for example not using Hyrri's Chest, Replica Hyrri's amulet, Asenath's Chant, so on and so forth. Not to mention, your setup is also not able to generate frenzy & power charges, not using Hydrosphere, skitterbots, etc. The build is quite fine-tuned in that sense that if you skipped some of them you're not going to get nearly the same results.

It's abit much to go through 1 by 1, try to have a look back at the POB again and see the differences in the setup and build from there. Btw that's a very nice corrupted Voidfletcher that you have.

oh hey! thanks for replying. i meant to say i've tried to tweak the items within my POB to reflect the items that you have (e.g. changed my helmet to Asenath's Chant, changed my armour, changed my gems within POB) but still ain't getting near your POB. i guess could really be some POB configuration that i've missed out. let me try again. :)

You shared back my own POB, just FYI. Anyway you gem link is should be OK, I used Hypothermia as 6th link because it was the best then, I believe a fully leveled awakened added cold is better as an endgame 6L. Not sure why you want to change from Tornado, as I can't really think up of anything better. For the bow, just filter in trade >1.6 APS, >7% crit > 400 DPS and maybe put in required affix of 'added cold damage'. For reference I bought my current one for 1 ex, which is real steal.

Coff, ops? Here we go, this is the right one https://pastebin.com/YAPsbVmJ
Atm i've awk gems lv 1 and i still miss asenanth enchantment =(
Thx for the advice!
Do u have any preferences of enchantment of uber lab for shoes and gloves?
In my first post i was talking about the 6link in the armour since it has 4 aura gems + an enlighthen.
Yesterday I find a timless jewel and i got few rolls that give me: +135 strenght 5% chanche to do double dmg and 4%maximum life, soo i decide to keep it since i arrive at 4255 life.

Where do you get phasing from considering you dont take it on the bow mastery tree?

edit: just seen the flasks my bad

For gloves, whatever on-hit effects (I prefer blades because of add. proj. + chain interaction)
For shoes, best would probably be attack speed / cold damage.

For aura, can't help you there if you're trying to run Grace together with all the other skills. Maybe instead of the build's Skitterbots + Bonechill just get skitterbots & grace enchant? You'd need to fiddle around because Grace is alot of mana reservation.

p.s. For timeless Jewel I'm using Brutal Restraint, because the added dex also helps with evasion + accuracy, on top of the rollable mods.

Not really using the quartz flask anymore, since spell suppression is capped at 101% with the new tree. Not using phasing anymore in the build due to that.

Well so basically I'm done with the build play for 3.16.

Some comments:
- Yeah the build's tankiness suffered a little bit from dodge / wind dancer / blind nerfs. It's still very much playable though.

- Gearing is definitely much easier as it moves away from Assasin's mark to Sniper's mark. Asenath's Chant becomes a very important gear which will be your first big purchase (after 5L rare armor). Also with using Sniper's Mark, a pierce Voidfletcher becomes very usable unlike before when we depends on chain so much more for clearing. Cost saving.

- Summon Skitterbots enchant (mana resv. efficiency) made the build not required to use Enlighten at all, cost saving.

- Some tree changes made the build not required to have large cluster jewel (%life on kill & elem dmg + resistance move to tree). You can still optimize the super endgame using cluster. Enduring composure from small cluster still required. Cost saving.

- Assasin's Mark ring no longer required (only good rolled Shaper influenced, to get Mark of the Elder's pairing effect), cost saving.




Here's the established POB (using my own 3.16 gears obtained from league start till now. I've done Sirus AL8, Uber Elder, Blight-ravaged map & Maven so it's decent enough):

Additionally, some gameplay video I've recorded with the 3.16 char (still using pierce Voidfletcher though, no luck yet):
Phoenix + Hydra:

Enslaver + Constrictor (and some minor scourge)

I don't understand the dagger and claw rings in the pob.

Hey, awesome guide. Would this build still work with lightning arrow instead?

Finally got my non-pierce Voidfletcher, after like 15 ex worths poofing. Will edit the POB to include this Voidfletcher instead.

You need the Lioneye's Fall jewel socketed nearby, that will convert those nodes to bow nodes (not masteries, but some dagger & claw masteries are universal and not weapon specific)

Sure, but would need some extensive tinkering. I've played a lightning arrow version of this build last league and it was definitively a worse version. Freeze is just simply too good.

Nice write-up, have a video of your Maven kill to check out?

Not unless you want to halve your single target dps. Hydrosphere x2 damage interaction requires you to have no pierce since cone procs off hydrosphere > proj chains into boss. If you pierce hydropshere = no x2, and pierce is used up before chain, so any pierce = big nono still.

Usually you wanted added fire damage corrupted fletcher to be able to use cinderswallow to proc 10% more dmg taken vs ignited from it, unless some fire damage on some jewellery, although you can also use wise oak instead if you manage your res balance.

Lightning arrow setup was for clear. Most sane ice shot builds played ice shot for ST, LA for clear as 2 6 links.

LA freezes perfectly fine / has mostly cold damage with just 40% converted and awk added cold 5, and has incomparably better clear from +2 implicit chains.
